RENEW SII017ER OF LIQUID FIRE ON FRENCH LINE
PARIS, April 12. German Infantry attacks with liquid fire were renewed west of the Meuse river in the sector of Verdun last night. The French war office announced today in an official statement that the Teutons assaulted the French posit Ions in Caurette woods, between CumIres and Le -Morte Hommne (Dead Mans Hill) bt were repulsed. A violent bombardment of the French position is being maintained from the Douamont-Vaax front.
CLUBS TO ASK
Continued From Page Onel If I should ever get into a tight place all I would have to do would be to blow this whistle, and I would get all the assistance I needed," When informed today that the Fed
erated Women's clubs intended to petition for the appointment of a police
woman. Chief Goodwin promptly re
marked. "That is a very good plan. He indicated that such a petition would have his support. Very recently
Chief Goodwin issued a public statement pointing out the increase of immorality among Richmond young men and women. Mrs. Martin in her address told of the great amount of work she is expected to perform in a city which is smaller than Richmond. She meets night trains for the purpose of look
ing aftcfr drifting girls, patrols the streets, at night and visits cheap dance halls and takes a kindly, interest in homeless young women.
I find.no time to loaf." she said.
She said there was as much work.!
11 not more, for a police woman in Richmond as tn Lafayette. :
A married- woraaa-1 preferable for the position, Mrs. Martin said. "Much care should be taken In the selection of such an official. She must have unbounded interest In her work, and hare only such & character as will commend the respect of all those she is called upon to deal with."
SPECIAL COUNCIL (Continued From Page One.) "The principal would'be reduced conaantly and of course the bank's interest revenue wouid be correspondingly reduced. The bank stands ready to
sell the entire bond issue at one time! if the city so desires." - - Although it was announced vaster-!
day that a special councU meeting!
would be held tonight for the purpose of considering the retirement of the construction bond issue, Mayor Robbins today decided not to issue the calL -r "There - is no hurry about this matter." the mayor said. "Council will .have plenty of time to act" That the city would retire ihe construction bonds through the issuance of five year term refunding bonds and still make a substantial reduction in electric rates was the opinion expressed today by President Bavis of the board. Pettis A. Reid. president of the Elliott-Reid Fence company, at a Commercial club meeting Monday night raised the question as to wether the retirement of the construction .bonds at this time would permit an electric rate reduction. Bavis Desires Both. "Some of the statements made by Mr. Reid are well founded and I have no criticism to make of this good

friend of our administration, but I am confident that rates can be reduced and construction bonds retired at the same time," Mr. Bavis said. He pointed out that by the retirement of this bond issue by the issuance of five year term refunding bonds the city -would have restored it to $139,000 credit against its legal debt limit six years Booner than if the construction bonds were permitted to run to their maturity, in 1927. "That credit may come In handy to the city within a short time," Bavis said. "For Instance, suppose the legislature provides against the dumping of sewage into streams. That would -mean a complete change in our sewer system. Does any one suppose, as another instance, if the city's credit had not been so near to the limit that we would have abandoned the public improvement program inaugurated last year?" Mr. Bavis said, he favored issuing refunding bonds maturing In 1921 or 1922, the city retaining the privilege, however, of retiring the bonds in 1920.
